harness-engineering
Set up or update the agent-first engineering harness for any repository. Implements the complete scaffolding that makes AI coding agents effective: knowledge maps (AGENTS.md as a concise TOC), structured documentation, architecture boundaries, enforcement rules (.harness/*.yml specs), quality scoring, and process patterns for agent-driven development.
Use this skill whenever someone wants to make a repo agent-ready, set up AGENTS.md or docs/ structure, define domain boundaries or golden principles, generate .harness/ configuration, audit agent readiness, or update an existing harness. Also trigger when a user reports problems with agent effectiveness, context management, or architectural drift — these are symptoms of a missing or stale harness.
Trigger on: "harness this repo", "set up harness", "agent-first setup", "make this agent-ready", "update the harness", "assess agent readiness", "set up AGENTS.md", "organize for agents", or any discussion about structuring a codebase for AI agent workflows.
